The most famous incident involving Force H in 1941 did not occur in the Mediterranean, but in the Atlantic Ocean.
The battleship had sailed in company with the heavy cruiser from Germany to commerce raid in the Atlantic.
She went round far to the north of the UK, passing through the Denmark Strait between Iceland and Greenland.
There, she was intercepted by a powerful British force made up of the new battleship and the old battlecruiser.
The engagement was a disaster for the Royal Navy, with Prince of Wales being damaged and Hood blowing up.
Only three out of the crew of 1, 400 aboard Hood survived.
Every Royal Navy unit available was then given the task of destroying the Bismarck.
